This patch fixes the following:
* Fixes minor bug found in DatabaseMetaData.getTables() where it doesn't
handle default table types.
* It now reports an error if the client opens a database using
properties, and either the user or password properties are missing. This
should make the recent problem with Servlets easier to find.
* Commented out obsolete property in Driver.getPropertyInfo()
Well this is not really a patch. But I mananged to get Linus' old Postgres95
precompiler to compile and work with PostgreSQL. The next step would be to
collect bug/missing feature reports and to put it into the distribution so
that it is made with the standard make procedure.
Warning! So far it is not tested much and it does not install correctly. But
I was able to create a small binary with it.
select from a table with attrs (a int, b char(20))
crashed in bpcharout() (palloc of -1 bytes). But a table
with attrs (a int, b varchar(20)) worked.

surrounded by parentheses (but not all are meaningful).
Remove unused keywords ACL, APPEND, MERGE.
Requires a "make clean" to recompile all code since keyword numeric
assignments have changed with keyword removal.
Define functions and operators for closest point to lseg on box,
to line on lseg, to lseg on lseg.
Define function and operator for length of lseg.
Change length operator from '??' to '@-@'
(currently defined for path and lseg).
Define close_ls(), close_lseg(), lseg_length().
Write real code for close_sb(), close_pb(), inter_sb(), inter_lb().
Repair lseg_perp() which determines if two lsegs are perpendicular.
Repair lseg_dt() distance between two lsegs.
Note: close_sl() is clearly broken but will repair later
(calculating point on lseg rather than point on line).
[This is a repost - it supercedes the previous one. It fixes the patch so
it doesn't bread aix port, plus there's a file missing out of the
original post because difforig doesn't pick up new files. It's now
attached. peter]
This patch brings the JDBC driver up to the current protocol spec.
Basically, the backend now tells the driver what authentication scheme to
use.
The patch also fixes a performance problem with large objects. In the
buffer manager, each fastpath call was sending multiple Notifications to
the backend (sometimes more data in the form of notifications were being
sent than blob data!).
